Memory Bowl

Recently I was contacted by a friend of mine. There had been a death in her family and she was seeking what I refer to as a Memory Bowl to, well, remember him by. I have made this type of bowl with receiving blankets, old aprons, and even pajama pants to serve as a comforting reminder of a child all grown up or someone special that for one reason or another can't be near us as often as we would like.
For this particular order, I was mailed 4 flannel button-front shirts and have begun molding them into useful reminders of this family member. Here are some photos of the first out of two.
If you have a need for a memory bowl, you can contact me by e-mail earthmamahyde@yahoo.com or search for Paisley Peace on facebook.

I just discovered your blog and added it right away to my list of homeschool families! I really like your bowls too, and I am wondering if you have a tutorial or something that I could use to try to make our own ourselves?Thanks!

Say Hello!

I am new to the blog world. I am just discovering this whole world of bloggers who give you a peek into their everyday lives. I find it fascinating that I can have a conversation with someone in the African bush as if she were right here in my living room. The inspiration and ideas, especially in the areas of homeschooling have already enriched the experience for our family.I have found some of my very favorite blogs by linking to the blogs of those who have left comments here on Spiral Pathways.I love hearing from you, so drop a note or leave a comment and let me know you've stopped by!
